The Arkansas Valley Pregnancy Center will be hosting its 19th annual Friend Raising Banquet on Thursday. The event will be held at InspirationField in La Junta and will begin at 6:30 p.m.

The banquet is the most significant friend raiser of the year! Anyone interested in volunteering at the AVPC can find out more about volunteer opportunities. It is a place where people can see and talk to others who are involved in the ministry and learn more about how to get involved.

For anyone who is a donor, the banquet is an opportunity for AVPC to honor them and give them a glimpse into how gifts are impacting lives. For anyone praying about becoming a donor the banquet allows people to learn about the ministry as a whole, talk to other donors, staff and volunteers and set up a time to visit the center.

Tickets are $10, which covers the cost of the meal. With this expense covered and the sponsorship of local businesses (listed below) we can ensure that all monies raised will go directly to benefit clients' needs.

Shawn Carney will be the keynote speaker. Shawn is the co-founder of 40 Days for Life, fundraiser, television personality and a pro-life speaker. Beginning in 2007, Shawn helped to expand 40 Days for Life to 240 cities in all 50 States, four Canadian provinces, England, Ireland, Brazil, Peru, Australia, and New Zealand. He has helped to mobilize more than 215,000 pro-life volunteers over the last two years.

Call 384-5561 for more information or to reserve seats.

Arkansas Valley Pregnancy Center would like to thank the following businesses and individuals that have joyfully given toward the expense of this event so that donated gifts can directly impact clients lives!
